Overall, an excellent lens which'll turn in great images even @ f/4.5 I don't like cropping my pics and so prefer to get as close as possible, so use tubes to get around the 4 metre minimum focus Weighty but a sturdy monopod gets around that - I do wish the supplied carry strap was longer but found a replacement with no probs
This is a very nice lens that cover a range no other lens for Pentax cameras covers! If you like to shoot with big teles (wildlife, birds, airshows etc) you have to check this lens out. It delivers high quality and resolution photos and takes good advantage of the K-5 great high ISO performance. Until another ultra-tele zoom of the ~500mm zone comes in for Pentax I think this along with the 150-500 are the best value for money lenses. As for the negative parts: It is big and heavy but only for those who are used to small zooms. The f/6.3 is not so bright but it is more than adequate for sunny days!
